I know we've talked about trades, etc. And I'm sure some of us would like a player moved. Personally, there are players on the team who aren't my type of player.

With that said, when you look at this roster (healthy)...all the guys coming back next year + all the young players playing well this year + the potential of other young players...

This team could be really, really good next year.

Also, the way Markstrom is playing...just for fun, I think we can go on a little winning streak here to make the end of the season interesting. Our division sucks. I know we're in last place, but we're the most well-balanced team in this division, no doubt in my mind. I can't wait until next year because next year will be the year we finally get to witness the "blueprint."

Not to mention another top-5 pick coming our way...

It's gonna be fun. For a long time. I've really never said that as a Panthers fan, but I really am starting to feel it now with the way Markstrom is playing, the way Matthias has progressed, the way Huberdeau has played like a rookie of the year, etc.

This team has a lot of depth right now. Depth and good goaltending wins a lot of hockey games. Look at all the top teams in the NHL. They all have good goaltending and they all roll four quality lines. We can have that NEXT YEAR.

This is the only trade deadline I'm happy we didn't clean house where out of the playoff hunt. Sure we could have got 3rd rounders for Goc, Kopecky etc. But why do it? Just have to sign new guys next UFA period and these guys are hard workers, know the team and have character. I hope Weiss resign and is 100%

Unless it's a 1-2 year deal, I want nothing to do with him... unless he signs for a "home-town discount" - which, let's face it, is unlikely.
